In complex projects, time is money. In crisis projects, every week of delay can create enormous cost. Yet project acceleration is often misunderstood as overtime, more resources, or more pressure on already overloaded teams. This book takes a different view. It shows how complex projects can often be shortened by changing the structure of the schedule: decomposing work differently, aligning ... Read more
